The Excretory System

There are some 100 trillion cells constantly active in the human body. As a result of these activities emerge waste products consisting of urea, uric acid and keratin, some of them very toxic. Unless they are immediately expelled from the body, the body’s functions become impaired, and death is inevitable.

At this point, we can once again see the body’s immaculate creation. In the same way that special systems have been created to eliminate exhaust fumes from a car’s engine, so the special excretory system have been created in the human body to eliminate the toxic products produced during its day-to-day activities.

Just like factories that discharge poisonous wastes into rivers, cells release the waste byproducts they create into the blood plasma. This means the human bloodstream is being polluted by the waste products from 100 trillion cells—pollution that represents a danger to life, unless the polluted blood is cleaned constantly.

But here a major problem arises. Along with such toxic wastes as urea and uric acid, there are also substances in the bloodstream that the body needs, such as amino acids, vitamins, water and glucose. That being so, whatever purifies the blood needs to be more than a simple filtering system. In addition to recognizing and retaining useful substances, this system also must function as a complex purification plant that will distinguish and eliminate only toxic products.

You might at first imagine that a plant so perfect and technologically equipped could be constructed only in a very large area. Yet this incomparable purification plant is actually installed in a very small area, just beneath your skin, at the level of your back, and it has existed ever since you were in your mother’s womb.

The paired organs known as the kidneys serve as a purification plant with which no technology can possibly compete.
